I'm gonna peruse the PW archives to see if I can answer my question here, but I'd love to learn more about Juno and wonder if you have previously published articles, videos, podcasts, etc. about it and/or if you have astrological sources you'd recommend for those of us who want to learn more.

I've never really engaged with Juno and only have a rudimentary understanding of her character in Greek mythology, but when you asked us if we had any thoughts about what the Juno/Pluto-Charon opposition to Jupiter/Vulcanus aspect might mean, the thought flashed in my head, "Battle of the sexes."

Haven't necessarily noticed any of those themes in various media rising, and maybe that thought is off or too on-the-nose, but figured I'd share it.

Now, I'll go look through the archives and if I find anything, I'll link it below (I've got both the time and inclination right now for such a task--anything to pass away another in this opening series of hot, humid Japanese summer nights!).

I’ve watched most of the first video but need to get back to it and give it a more attentive view as I used it as my “lullaby” video to get to sleep on a sultry Japanese summer night the other day.

There definitely is a lot of hype around this astro event and some of it is annoying, to be sure.

Having said that, I think the fact that Barbault had a long career of doing mundane astrology and was able to forecast the 2020 nonsense many years in advance makes his work worthy of considering.

As far as the aspect pattern goes, I think the preciseness of the degrees of these major outer planets and their shared masculine signs creating compatibility between them is what makes it stand out.

Having said that, the other day I stumbled upon finding a similar, if less exact, aspect pattern in the late 1990s, though it used Mars as one of the planets, which leads me to think that perhaps these things aren’t as rare as some are saying.

Anyway, glad to have an experienced and nuanced astrologer like you, Erik, on this story because you’re someone who’s not afraid to challenge the status quo and discover things most aren’t seeing. I look forward to finishing video 1 and watching video 2!
